“The public is widely misunderstanding the important aspects of many sustainability claims. In order to battle the environmental issues we face today in the most efficient and effective manner, we must understand relevant scientific facts from all possible aspects to accurately evaluate overall impacts”, says Sae Chang, President and CEO of Clean Recycling Initiative™ (NON PROFIT) and the inspiration behind the campaign. “In particular, I have witnessed many claims and actions based on biased and inaccurate information with significant lack of expertise. I am afraid that these actions can lead to grave consequences in so many different aspects of our lives”, Sae continued. “What we are trying to achieve in this BGH campaign is in line with the efforts my organization, Clean Recycling Initiative™ (NON-PROFIT), has been making through the annual International Sustainability Marketing Competition (ISMC). That is to educate the public with unbiased information and scientific facts from all possible angles to raise awareness on the dangers of some of the activities under the name of sustainability”.

About Clean Recycling Initiative™
The non-profit organization, Clean Recycling Initiative™ was established based on the donations of the technology platform with the same name, i.e., Clean Recycling Initiative™, from a Montreal, Canada based company, HEAT-MX™, which specializes in thermal insulation business. The organization engages in providing solutions for recycling textile wastes without using chemicals or any other harmful processes for the environment. The solutions are designed for collecting and processing textile wastes from the general public as well as organizations in global textile industries in a wide range of operational categories, including manufacturing, transportation, distribution, retail, wholesale, etc. The technology platform consists of three different levels, defined based on the sources of textile wastes and how to collect and process them. LEVEL 1 is for household wastes with labeling requirements fulfilled by the general public. LEVEL 2 is for manufacturing wastes from textile mills and LEVEL 3 is for specific types of intermediary raw material manufacturing. Although the technologies were developed based on how the materials from each level are processed, one important aspect of it concerns the collections, especially in LEVEL 1, i.e., household wastes. Therefore, the organization will work with federal governments, municipalities, law makers, etc., around the globe to help implement the technology platform.
